5-2. Join the ZigBee Network
After ZB11B is turned on, it will search for an existing ZigBee network and send a request to join the network
automatically. While ZB11B is under the coverage from a coordinator or a router whose
permit-join feature is
enabled
, ZB11B will be permitted to join the network.
Step1. Enable the permit-join function (valid for 60 seconds) of a coordinator or a router (please refer to
the user manual of the coordinator or the router to enable the permit-join feature).
Step2. Turn on ZB11B. It will start to search and join the network.
Step3. The indicator will flash
green
once
when it finds out a network to join.
Step4. The indicator will flash
green
5 times
after it is joined successfully. Otherwise, the indicator will
not flash.
5-3. Binding
To make ZB11B work with another device, users need to bind the two devices:
Step1. Press the
Binding Key
to broadcast the binding request. The indicator will flash
green
once
.
Step2. The indicator flashes
green
5 times
after the binding is completed; otherwise, it flashes
green
10
times
.
5-4. Sleeping Mode
ZB11B is designed to go into sleeping mode for power-saving in some situations:
A. While the device is in the network → the sleeping period is 5 minutes; it will wake up every 5
minutes to keep online.
B. When it doesn’t find a network to join →ZB11B will go to sleeping mode. It will wake up every 15
minutes to search a network to join.
C. Once ZB11B was joined to a network and by any chance the network is no longer existed or the
device is out of the network →ZB11B will wake up every 15 minutes to find the network it joined
before.
It never keeps in sleeping mode and continues to find out a network every 15 minutes. This condition would
consume up to 30 times power spending compared to normal-operating status. To prevent this unwanted power
consumption, we recommend that users remove the batteries to power off the device.
